the saga of my mercedes benz suv

oh lord you brought me a mercedes benz
none of my friends drive porsches
i must make amends
la culpa es mía
the blame it is all mine
i might be poco loco
at least i'm driving fine

it's just a lil old light-middleweight truck
a champ in silver suv disguise
115,000 miles, an early 60th birthday surprise :o
no problema it's made tough
and 1999 was a vintage year,
it's a diamond in the rough,
but tyrone the mercedes service man says
"it was an off-year, new model with little bugs"
no wonder i got it cheap, $15,000
i'll give it lots of hugs

with 4 new tires and riding cool
reflecting yin-yang plate in front
and sun roof open to the skies,
i wanna drive it to the moon
and all the way back home,
480,000 miles until 2050 and then
we'll drive off into the sunset forever
me and suzie-marie
in our 1999 mercedes suv

put my epitath
on prayer flags
flappng in the wind
"poco loco
win-win
somos amigos
to the end." 8)

Sounds like a plan
be a shame to waste all that space and make that beautiful trip with just three people
that rig got to carry at least eight or nine
people in comfort and style
who else?



count me in jimbo.

na had a capacity for five people only
but the middle seat in the back is occupied by Sully and Mike
ya know, Mike with one eye, get it?

i press Sully's hand and he speaks
like, "lets get to da scare floor
i'm late for work."

and it's not as comfortable as my old 96 chrysler lhs,
woulda kept it forever too
paid off
my wifey was driving into the sun, morning, blinded,
struck a passing van
no harm to either, but two acciDents within 1 block same time

got a good bluebook value
had it maintained at Tires Plus

now Suzie is driving her own new car
and i used the total loss cash for a down payment
mercy
got five years to pay it off
i think i just got my second wind, man.
6 years til 66
then its uncle sam and two days a week to work
always gonna find a way to help healing folk
it has healed me already
mercy

is it diesel or gas?

I was always partial to mercedes benz drivers, much more sane than those fucking idiots in the BMW's. They used to run the commercials of the killer 18 wheelers.

No you Know I don't get much of nothing these days

I live like a hermit


I started out to be a healer too
twelve years as a sophomore pre-med student
the perfect education for a truck driver

sixty six in my rear view mirror

roll on jimboloco

there's abook out about Chinese mountain hermits; when I find it I'll let you know.
me in a her·mit·age too
just come out like Nietzsche's peachey keen sub-hero
then back in again
like they said in our air farce pow training
"home, swines, go to your home!"
to our conrete bunker,
where we huddled, sleep deprivation,
it sucked.

5 in a mercedez?? no idea of its capacity (an old disgusting boss of mine had one, it was easy not wanted to tried it!!). And we have a friend with only one eye!!!...I didn´t notice it!!!. Maybe a bus is a good idea. But come in summer!... except you want to skii and be inside of a hut with fire all the time.
